“We highly recommend this gem of a restaurant in West Yellowstone. The food was beyond fantastic. On our first night we enjoyed the meatballs (elk & bison ) and the 1/2 chicken both where delicious and cooked to perfection. On our seconded night we ordered the Elk Ravioli and the Elk medallions- wow what can we say it was sooooo good. We even had room for the huckleberry cheesecake which put us in a food coma. Our waitress was Amber and what a sweetheart and she never missed a step. Went out of her way to make our dinner experience extra special. We also want to do a shout out to Brenda the owner you are one special lady. We enjoyed speaking with you from one Wisconsinite to another and we absolutely enjoyed our scotcharoo's on our trip home. If we are ever back in Yellowstone we sure will stop by again.“

BLACK SHEEP CAFE West Yellowstone American • $$
301 Madison Ave, West Yellowstone

“My husband and I came here for lunch. We enjoyed everything so much. The restaurant was completely empty so it made for a quiet atmosphere. I'm sure during peak season this place is poppin because the food was incredible. I have been to Black Sheep Cafe in Provo, but it was almost a decade ago, and it's all I've been talking about for a couple months so when we saw on the website we had one relatively locally (we live in Big Sky) I was excited to check it out. The best part was the affordability to portions. We enjoyed that we were full and satisfied without having to take leftovers home - this is great for you travelers out there! Wish we took pictures, but we had a wonderful experience and recommend 10/10. Food was wholesome, nutritious and flavorful!! Thank you so much.“

PARK 520 HOTEL American •
155 Einos Loop, West Yellowstone

“A true hidden gem.

It is not just a hotel. Not just an Airbnb. It is a luxury cozy private home stay. We loved staying at Park 520 Hotel. We directly booked the hotel for 2 nights and it was the best cabin we stayed in.

It has all the amenities, we had a good cell phone signal (my service provider is TMobile). They also have wifi. Has hot water, room heater, hair dryer, collection of towels, bedsheets/comforter, 4 burner gas stove, fridge, microwave, kitchen utensils and cutlery.

The view in front of the house was incredible. It was a big open valley and there was a horse ranch on the side. We saw 3 beautiful horses eating grass.

Bed was so comfortable. We had a tight sleep after long hiking. It was so soft and pleasant.

Has good collection of utensils, coffee machine, sugar/salt.

Luckily there was a partial red moon and viewing the shining moon 🌙 at early morning 5 am just by standing near the window is my best moment here. Moonset on the mountain 🌄 is a great to watch.

There is a picnic table in front of our cabin #1 and having a hot coffee by seeing mountain in the front was a good time.

I definitely recommend this place. It is just 9 mins drive from the West Yellowstone town. I found, booking directly in their website was more affordable than booking this place in Airbnb/other 3rd party booking sites.

We will come back for sure !!“

I think I may have embarrassed her by pointing out how beautiful she is lol Day one I ordered the tritip dip it was so good the waffle frieswere tasty, day two I ordered the chicken fried state with loaded bake potato and white rice chicken soup! Amazing also the huckleberry cheese cake for the win! If you like to gamble there is a tiny casino area and also a bar area. The hours are sporadic at the moment but call ahead and see!
